(Fox News) There is a case working its way through the court system right now focused on the Department of Education’s religious exemption to Title IX.
A group of LGBTQ students is suing the federal government, arguing that the religious schools they attended discriminated against them. They want to overthrow the religious exemption, which would mean that religious colleges and universities nationwide would not be able to receive federal funds or federally backed student loans.
After the lawsuit was filed, three Christian schools sought to defend the religious exemption that allowed religious schools to maintain their polices regarding sexuality and gender that are in keeping the traditional teachings of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity.
